A Brand New Start

January
_
Each year will start with me, I am the first;
In many ways, pristine and unrehearsed,
But otherwise predictable and more
Alertly tuned to what has gone before.
More hope is poured on me than any time,
Which means I start the year enthused and prime.
No matter how my weather touches you,
Remember that, from my standpoint, it’s new.
Remember, too, don’t leave your dreams unsaid–
There’s much to do in all the months ahead.

R. Williams,
Honor Flight Chicago Veteran and HFC Poet Laureate

January is a time of new beginnings when we look forward to the new year stretching before us. It is a time for optimism — the knowledge that we can accomplish much in this bright new year.

Honor Flight Chicago is looking forward to a great year, and we are hopeful that we can accomplish a great deal in our quest to get as many veterans as possible to Washington, D.C. this year to see their memorial. We know that with everyone’s help there is so much we can do. Our New Year’s resolution remains firm!
